| summary | Dr. Daphna Oyserman’s research examines how small changes in context
can shift mindsets, and so the perceived meaning of behaviors and
situations, with large downstream effects on important and consequential
outcomes, including health and academic performance. Her theoretical and
experimental work conceptualizes the underlying processes, which she
then translates into real-world interventions. One line of work focuses
on cultural differences in affect, behavior, and cognition – how people
feel, act, and think about themselves and the world around them. A
related second line of work focuses on racial, ethnic, and social class
gaps in school achievement and health. Throughout, she examines how
apparently “fixed” differences between groups may in fact mask highly
malleable situated processes that can be profoundly influenced through
small interventions that shift mindset. |
